The Lichtenstein also has another interesting Afrikaans name - mofhartebees!

Bishop you are correct , my mistake . That is indeed how they are named today . What is also interesting however , is that the Tsessebe is Damaliscus , wheras both Blesbok and bontebok are also Damaliscus , and I wonder then what the close relationship here , and why not rather also Alcelaphus

And also correk for mofhartebees for the Lichtenstein . But mof in afrikaans also means " wooly" like mofkop for woolyhaired or woolhead , for instance " mofskape " . But now comes the really interesting part : mof also means a " cross " or a " crossbreed " . And that comes back to why way back in the old days , in fact the Lichtenstein was called Basterhartebees . When it was changed , I do not know

Tread softly , and let your departure not be spoiled by the damage of your arrival
